In this one, Holmes shows more warmth towards Watson than in some of the other films, where he can be a bit patronizing. Here, he actually praises and thanks Watson for standing up for him while his reputation is being damaged.

I do want to watch this motion picture but doesn’t the title remind you of that lady who bought a pair of black pearl earrings before hitting the sea over a boat with friends. She was told that black pearls bring protection when she just liked them. Little did she know they were about to experience a life-changing incident through which everyone failed to survive but her in the midst of endless blue.. for what seemed like endless days to her until a passing-by ship saved her. She lived to tell.. wearing the one earring she did not lose through that unfortunate trip with a shiny black pearl dangling still from her earlobe. This title just reminded me of it.

@@TinnyDee Prhaps but the movie has been on You Tube for years. I am not sure what exactly the copyright covers or if once it goes into the public domain it doesn't stay there. The chopping of titles seems to be a recent phenomonon. Its easy to look movies up on IMDb or even identifiy those posted without giving the title. I really don't like seeing movies mutilated like this.

Love this version, but Nigel Bruce is my least favorite of the Watson charactors. Holmes would never align himself with such a bumbler. The Jeremy Brett "Watson" is much better.
